Re: air suspension
looks like its just bags, no controls, lines, wiring, or compressor. thats where the money is. Not even a decent discription of what you ar getting. I would pass
what ar eyou looking to do with the car? what kind of upgrades? You can get adjustable weight jacks from Ground control for about 450, leaving you some change for other parts.

Re: air suspension
$687 for just 4 bags & brackets? They are WAY overcharging for just bags & brackets. Bags are cheap. Like //86TA\\ said...Its the pump, lines & controllers that add up.
